    NickSunderbruch got a reaction from mattyIceman in Nick's Reimagining Of The League   
    While the VHL/M/E is absolutely a league we all can appreciate and love, there's certainly some changes that I here, your favorite Florida Man back from presumably dead after about a 3 year hiatus, would make. I've been gone from the league for quite some time now for some personal reasons and really just not having been mentally in the place I needed to be in to be a contributing member to this community. With that being said, I'm back for good and you guys have to deal with my antics once again, and first on my list is a proposal that shouldn't make any sense but absolutely does. Moving every single team in the VHL, VHLM, and VHLE to a city in Florida and changing the name from the "Victory Hockey League" to the "Florida Hockey League". It's no secret that no other place in the world has anything significant to offer, and that the peak of human civilization has always been the creation of Florida.
     
         From Miami to Jacksonville, Tampa to West Palm beach, Tallahassee to Orlando, there is no city in the world with as much... culture as the state of Florida. You'd probably ask, well which teams would be moved where? Why move teams to Florida when we have Miami already? Aren't there unsavory people all across the state? And these are all incredibly dumb questions and you're dumb for asking them, take the crayons out of your mouth and listen to me okay? Florida is just inherently a better place for the League to call home, We could have the Winter Haven Crackheads, or the Orlando Snowbirds, or even the Clearwater Riots. There's limitless potential for Florida teams in the Sunshine state, we'd help stimulate the economy and really piss off every single Canadian Hockey fan forever, which in my personal and very humble but yet supreme opinion, is worth every single bit of money we'd lose from other markets.
     
         My plan/proposal isn't a financial decision that will make us any real money, no my plans are much more simple, I wish to simply engage in mass psychological warfare with every Canadian I possibly can on the pettiest level imaginable, taking away the sport that means so much to them. And while my advanced form of psychological warfare is absolutely hilarious, it also helps to establish the new Florida forever movement in which I am campaigning. Every VHL player on contract will be given one of their choice of either an American Alligator, or an American Crocodile, as those two are native to Florida and are a symbol of our unwavering love for the republic of Florida. Hockey also just inherently belongs in a warm environment, think about it you can just go down the beach and get all sandy and sunburned and then enjoy a nice cool hockey game at the "Nicktropolis Megadome" to watch the Orlando Snowbirds take on the 6x defending champion the Seminole Aces. The experience would be absolutely unparalleled, and there would be nothing in the known universe that could even compare to the amazing Florida Hockey League, and with your support we can make this dream a reality with me instated as the supreme leader of Florida.
     
         But anyways, in all seriousness it's nice to be back in the League, like I said before I had a lot going on in my personal life and took some time away, I'm absolutely amazed that so many of  y'all remember me and welcomed me back with open arms. I've missed this community greatly and this time I'm here to stay, thank you all for reading my border line psychosis inducing article, may we all be blessed down in Florida! Anyways I think I hear my dad coming home from the bar, I gotta grab my helmet and jockstrap, stay warm and stay icey, Seacrest out.

    1. I'm loving the VHLM again, it's always been one of my favorite leagues because you get to see the next generation of superstars way before they hit the majors.
    2. I play for the Ace's, and a favorite thing about them is probably the location, lots of great places in Vegas and a lot of great players come through here.
    3. If I could add a VHLM team I'd have to add em to my hometown, Tampa FL, I'd love to see some sort of sea style mascot like a Manatee or something like that.
    4. My seasons just beginning considering I was picked up out of free agency just the other day, 2 games at a -4 isn't super amazing, gotta really clean up my play so I'm an asset not a liability.
    5. I really don't have a preference where I go, but I'd like my future GM to know I'll definitely be a pick that pays off, I work hard every shift and I like to play a more defense oriented center playstyle, a lot of dump and chase and back checking.
    6. I've always wanted to visit Costa Rica or Thailand, I'm a huge fan of wildlife and I'd love to see some crocs and caiman in their natural habitat.

    1. we're absolutely killing it, I'm so hyped for the playoffs. 
    2. I feel like Vegas making the playoffs with only 3 real players this season is the biggest shock.
    3. I don't think any team is capable of dissapointing me, I usually expect the Ms landscape to change constantly. 
    4. Favorite dish has to be Thai Peppered Steak.
    5. I'm going to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando. so I'm pshyched
    6. The Lightning are starting a little slow, the loss to buffalo stung, but we're making our comeback.

    I really enjoyed this one, think you did a great job. You can tell off the jump the amount of work you put into it with laying out the different stats, but the forward-looking analysis of what it means for the rest of the season lived up to it as well. The article flowed well from beginning to end, and I think it was laid out well with the intro, stats, comparison, then look forward. The presentation was great too with the colored/bolded headings, and I always appreciate the little detail of tagging the people you're talking about. All in all it made me interested to read about other matchups in the series even as someone who doesn't have a vested interest in the VHLM, which is the best thing I can say about a piece.

    These two teams are absolutely crazy good this season, both on pace to break some VHLM records for the season. With only one point separating these two teams the question comes to mind, will these teams meet in the cup finals? It's absolutely a question worth asking as these teams are both top of their respective conferences and outperforming every other team in the league. For reference Ottawa is currently in first with 50 points, Yukon is in 2nd with 49, and third place in the league is Houston with 39 points. There's some space between these teams and the rest for sure, and possibly more space to come as these teams continue to dominate in their respective conferences. Lets take a look at these two teams and compare them in depth, something I haven't committed to doing in quite a long time. So without further ado lets get this show on the road and compare TPE totals, and then an in-depth roster analysis for both of these juggernauts.
     
    Ottawa Lynx: 3005 TPA Total
    Ottawa is stacked when it comes to their overall TPA values, though only two players are maxed out at 200.
    Ottawa has a TPA total of 1481 on offense, 724 on Defense and 200 on goalies.
    Top players on this team stat wise include, Austin Towbaker @Domino, Juice Box @Siddhus, Finn Davis @M1nT, and The Red Menace @Me.
    Austin Towbaker has 33 goals and 35 assists for 68 points in 27 games.
    Juice Box has 29 goals and 38 assists for 67 points in 27 games.
    Finn Davis has 15 goals and 51 assists for 66 assists in 27 games.
    The Red Menace is currently 25-2-0 with a .903 SV% and a 2.66 GAA with two total shutouts in 27 games.
     
    Yukon Rush: 2014 TPA Total
    Yukon has a very solid TPA total, and has more maxed out players than Ottawa with four total.
    Yukon has a TPA total of 1161, 570 on defense, and 83 on goalies. 
    Top players on this team stat wise include, Kyosti Karjalainen @UnkemptCL4PTP, Harkat Mulds @hylands, Hulk Hogan 2 @TXC and Thomas Price @Thunderidge
    Kyosti Karjalainen has 33 goals and 31 assists for 64 points in 27 games.
    Harkat Mulds has 23 goals and 38 assists for 61 points in 27 games.
    Hulk Hogan 2 has 14 goals and 40 assists for a total of 54, and 47 shots blocked in 27 games.
    Thomas Price is 24-2-1 with a .874 SV% and a 3.51 GAA with one shutout in 27 games.
     
         When we compare some of these stats together we have two different stories that seem to appear. Ottawas story is that of expert drafting and team building by none other than @16z. With three first round picks this season and three next season, 16z has set Ottawa up to be good not just this season, but next season as well. Ottawa absolutely has an expert GM handling the team, and I wouldn't be surprised to see 16z expertly coach a VHLE or VHL team in the near future as he's sure to draw some kind of attention to himself as time goes on. We also see the story of expert goaltending in Ottawa with a well rounded offense and defense. 
     
         What we see in Yukon is similar but also worlds apart, we see a team with much less human players on defense and a 83 TPA goalie leading his team to victory. Yukon being this good isn't because of their numbers, and while having 1161 TPA on offense is nothing to sneeze at, their defense is thin comparatively. But having said that the offense more than makes up for the defensive numbers, 186 goals for in 27 games is absolutely phenomenal. But let's also take a look at this young stud Thomas Price, who if I'm being honest deserves to be mentioned in the Benoit Devereux trophy talks. the 83 TPA wonder is absolutely stunning the league with leading this team to victory. Under normal circumstances this would be impressive, but given how dominate Yukon has been this feat is absolutely enormous. 
     
         That all being said, Yukon and Ottawa are absolutely the favorites to make it to the final and the most likely matchup, though the STHS is known to make everyone who utters a prediction eat shit. I look forward to seeing how these teams continue to play for the rest of the season, but making a prediction I'd have to say that if either of these teams were to run out of steam it would have to be Yukon as their numbers are just inferior to some other teams out there, and as other players on other teams begin to catch up in the TPA department we could see a completely different story begin to emerge. Anyways I hope you all enjoyed my article, and I'd love some feedback if you could tell me if maybe you'd want some more of these matchup article. Well I hear my dad coming home from the bar, I'd better grab my helmet and jockstrap. Stay warm and stay icy, Seacrest out.

         When we compare some of these stats together we have two different stories that seem to appear. Ottawas story is that of expert drafting and team building by none other than @16z. With three first round picks this season and three next season, 16z has set Ottawa up to be good not just this season, but next season as well. Ottawa absolutely has an expert GM handling the team, and I wouldn't be surprised to see 16z expertly coach a VHLE or VHL team in the near future as he's sure to draw some kind of attention to himself as time goes on. We also see the story of expert goaltending in Ottawa with a well rounded offense and defense. 
     
         What we see in Yukon is similar but also worlds apart, we see a team with much less human players on defense and a 83 TPA goalie leading his team to victory. Yukon being this good isn't because of their numbers, and while having 1161 TPA on offense is nothing to sneeze at, their defense is thin comparatively. But having said that the offense more than makes up for the defensive numbers, 186 goals for in 27 games is absolutely phenomenal. But let's also take a look at this young stud Thomas Price, who if I'm being honest deserves to be mentioned in the Benoit Devereux trophy talks. the 83 TPA wonder is absolutely stunning the league with leading this team to victory. Under normal circumstances this would be impressive, but given how dominate Yukon has been this feat is absolutely enormous. 
     
         That all being said, Yukon and Ottawa are absolutely the favorites to make it to the final and the most likely matchup, though the STHS is known to make everyone who utters a prediction eat shit. I look forward to seeing how these teams continue to play for the rest of the season, but making a prediction I'd have to say that if either of these teams were to run out of steam it would have to be Yukon as their numbers are just inferior to some other teams out there, and as other players on other teams begin to catch up in the TPA department we could see a completely different story begin to emerge. Anyways I hope you all enjoyed my article, and I'd love some feedback if you could tell me if maybe you'd want some more of these matchup article. Well I hear my dad coming home from the bar, I'd better grab my helmet and jockstrap. Stay warm and stay icy, Seacrest out.
